What better way to start the first day of a new year than under the sea? January 1st I went diving around the local islands off the coast of Ao Nang<\/a>, in the Andaman sea.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When we were going to\u00a0Koh Lanta<\/a>, in the middle of December, it was my plan to go diving, and Matias was also considering it.<\/p>\n Both Matias and I are scuba divers, but we have to split up when diving. Sixten is still not comfortable in deep water, so there’s is no point in going on the boat together.<\/p>\n When I was in Lanta 12 years ago I had some great dives. Arriving at Lanta, I was a bit shocked to see how busy the island had become, and how many boats (with about 50 people on), was going out to the same dive sites. It really turned me off and as the prices are\u00a0also double of what a\u00a0dive\u00a0cost in the rest of Thailand, I decided to wait a bit.<\/p>\n So we went to Krabi, Ao Nang – to dive near the local islands we heard are less busy, but still great dive sites. I got the tip about the local islands from a Facebook group I\u2019m in; Girls that scuba<\/a>. A great community if you are interested in scuba diving!<\/span><\/p>\nWhy Dive in Ao Nang – Krabi?<\/h2>\n
